1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Listeria monocytogenes is a gram-positive bacterial pathogen that multiplies in the cytosol of host cells and spreads directly from cell to cell. During cell-to-cell spread, bacteria become temporarily confined to secondary vacuoles. The broad-range phospholipase C (PC-PLC) of L. monocytogenes contributes to bacterial escape from secondary vacuoles. PC-PLC requires cleavage of an N-terminal propeptide for activation, and Mpl, a metalloprotease of Listeria, is involved in the proteolytic activation of PC-PLC. Previously, we showed that cell wall translocation of PC-PLC is inefficient, resulting in accumulation of PC-PLC at the membrane-cell wall interface. In infected cells, rapid cell wall translocation of PC-PLC is triggered by a decrease in pH and correlates with cleavage of the propeptide in an Mpl-dependent manner. To address the role of the propeptide and of Mpl in cell wall translocation of PC-PLC, we generated a cleavage site mutant and a propeptide deletion mutant. The intracellular behavior of these mutants was assessed in pulse-chase experiments. We observed efficient translocation of the proform of the PC-PLC cleavage site mutant in a manner that was pH sensitive and Mpl dependent. However, the propeptide deletion mutant was efficiently translocated into host cells independent of Mpl and pH. Overall, these results suggest that Mpl regulates PC-PLC translocation across the bacterial cell wall in a manner that is dependent on the presence of the propeptide but independent of propeptide cleavage. In addition, similarly to Mpl-mediated cleavage of PC-PLC propeptide, Mpl-mediated translocation of PC-PLC across the bacterial cell wall is pH sensitive.
